Cagayan Valley, Apayao, Kalinga, Aurora, and Quezon will have cloudy skies with rains due to the monsoon. Moderate to at times heavy rains may possibly lead to flash floods or landslides.

Visayas, Mindanao, Bicol Region, and Palawan may expect partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated rain showers or thunderstorms brought about by the easterlies and localized thunderstorms. During severe thunderstorms, flash floods or landslides may result.

Metro Manila and the rest of Luzon will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with isolated light rains due to the monsoon.
